The present invention relates to the Long-distance Control and the access technique of some electronic equipment, more particularly, relate to the interface arrangement and the method for the network equipment of internet protocol-based control based on the network equipment of non-internet.
Along with the fast development of personal computer, the Internet has entered our daily life as network.Therefore, the Internet has become our live and work inalienable part.
Usually, personal computer network can be built with multiple mode according to the occupation mode of each storehouse and the layer of agreement.Under the situation of above-mentioned the Internet, network is based on three layers of Internet protocol (IP).
But, multiple non-based on IP and independently network also exist.For terminal that is used for this network and electronic equipment, produce such problem, promptly can not install enterprising line access and control at those with IP-based network equipment.Reason is to exist different protocol stack structure between two kinds of networks.
In brief, terminal and the electronic equipment that is used for non-IP based network can not carry out access and control by terminal and the electronic equipment that is used for IP network.
For example, dedicated network for example " " or home network is independently being built and use on the basis by " company's network ".In this case, these networks all have the agreement of oneself usually.However, because the different stack architectures of this IP network and agreement, mutual access and control are disabled between the terminal of each automatic network and the device.
Though there is a kind of like this demand, promptly be used for some electronic installation of those ad-hoc networks by the Internet control, also do not propose any remedial measure and solve this problem.
Recently, also have a kind of demand to be, terminal and the electronic equipment of interface arrangement by being widely used in IP network, access or control are such as the such device based on non-IP network of dedicated network.Yet, do not propose special means to save the situation and interface arrangement so far and satisfy this demand.
Therefore, the purpose of this invention is to provide an interface arrangement and method, so that be used for controlling non-IP-based network device with the IP-based network device.
Finish above-mentioned purpose, one interface arrangement is provided, it is used for controlling non-IP-based network device with the IP-based network device, comprise: a dynamic home page helps part, be used on the predetermined electronic installation of a non-IP-based network, gathering information, and help structure and handle dynamic home page according to the structure of dynamic network server; With a function control transformation part, be used for the demand of the function of IP-based network control according to the control command of the suitable conversion that is used for non-IP based network, be converted to demand when selected by HTTP as the preset function of IP based network non-IP based network function control one.

Description is described the preferred embodiments of the present invention.In the following description, even the components identical in different reference diagrams, also adopt identical reference numerals.The thing that limits in description, for example detailed structure and circuit element are provided at here just in order to help comprehensively to understand the present invention.Obviously, there is not the thing of these qualifications can realize the present invention yet.In addition, well-known function and structure are not described in detail, in order to avoid cover the present invention because of some unnecessary details.
The present invention studies the function of interface arrangement and the structure of protocol stack.Though there are many non-IP-based network, following description will concentrate on the small-sized home network that the present invention can preferably be used.
One home-network protocols noticeable, that the present invention is suitable for is IEEE 1394.IEEE 1394 is the high-speed serial interfaces by u s company of Apple Computer--propose and take the lead in adopting.This standard is supported a simultaneous non-synchronous transmissions (simultaneous non-synchronoustransmission), and is used in and the interface that is used as the digital household implements of A/V equipment.Though proposed the multiple scope of application, home network is wherein the most general use.
IP (Internet protocol) is three layers the Internet protocol that is applicable to network.
The interchangeability of home audio, video (HAVi) is applicable to one embodiment of the present of invention.HAVi is a software pattern of formulating by at eight companies and the Sony in Europe.Be implemented between the A/V equipment and realize interlinking by IEEE 1394 networks.One readme device (SDD) provides basic information on the HAVi node.One device control module is one to be used to control the functional control module of HAVi node.
According to one embodiment of the invention,, the topological state that is used for internetworking is described below with reference to figure 1.
Use the agreement of three different layers also to use the help layer usually with mode separately.As shown in Figure 1, an internetworking device 100 is used for IP-based network is linked to non-IP-based network.This internetworking device 100 is implemented to and both can be used as the individual components execution such as to the bag translation of dissimilar networkings and the function of control agent, also can be used as the slave unit of the part of the device that comprises existing execution identical function.
Internetworking device 100 comprises an IP interface arrangement, by this device, and IP-based network device A, B, C ... N can be linked to non-IP-based network equipment a, b, and c ..., on the n.
According to the present invention, this internetworking device 100 is not subjected to the restriction of independent type or subordinate type.
Fig. 2 is the block diagram that the protocol stack of IP interface arrangement is described according to a preferred embodiment of the invention.With reference to figure 2, this protocol stack has the condition of two generic interfaces, to control non-IP based network from IP based network.
First condition is to obtain the passage that the Web address is carried out access from IP-based network.Second condition is the agreement that is used for function control between the utensil that is standardized in the non-IP-based network.
The structure of Fig. 2 explanation is a type independently, and the type can link two different networks, and carries out function by above-mentioned two conditional requests as the part of a hardware unit.
Fill the part of oblique line and represent that control transformation and dynamic home page help.This part is mainly carried out two different functions.
First function is structure and the processing that participates in dynamic home page, in other words, in non-IP-based network information search in equipment, and the structure that participates in the webserver.
Second function is to be used for converting the function demand for control to IP based network to demand that the function of non-IP based network is controlled.This function realizes by the suitable control command that the predetermined function that will select via the HTTP of IP based network converts in the non-IP-based network.
Said method can make a homepage of the Network Based server of IP-based network device by as shown in Figure 2, and that is familiar with each device in the non-IP-based network exists (existence) and function.
Yet, the problem below above-mentioned method has proposed.If non-IP-based network device is scheduled to, and in case whether device links and be determined out, then the function of this device has just been judged.Therefore, can construct a dynamic home page.If non-IP-based network device is not scheduled to, only comprises that then the essential information of the type of equipment can be used, and do not have detailed functions.Therefore, though well-known major function can realize that to construct or handle homepage be impossible by grasping wherein allomeric function with reference to the type of this equipment.
Therefore, be used to from IP-based network control under the situation of non-IP-based network device, should satisfy following three conditions, referring to another embodiment of the present invention as shown in Figure 3 at an IP-based network device.
The first, this access should be based on the web based on web.The second, the function control protocol that is used between the device should be in non-IP-based network standardization.The 3rd, this agreement should standardization so that the information on the apparatus function in non-IP-based network can be used, and realize that in a kind of more advanced mode mutual control can be easy to.
The cooperation agreement of interface arrangement as shown in Figure 3 (interoperation protocol) satisfies above-mentioned condition.Usually the agreement that belongs to such is HAVi, Jini, UPNP etc.In these agreements, HAVi is suitable for for non-IP-based network.Though fundamentally HAVi is based on IEEE 1394 interfaces, if relevant correction is done in the interface section with subsidiary layer, then it also is applicable to other non-IP-based network.
In another embodiment of the present invention, structure as shown in Figure 3 is a type independently, it can link two networks and as rely on environmental device the part of device realize above-mentioned functions.
Therefore, the oblique line in the centre of the network protocol stack in the structure of interface arrangement is as shown in Figure 3 partly realized following two functions.
Basic function is as common interface arrangement, and this device is with shown in Figure 2 identical, but on detail content difference.
Especially, first function participates in structure one dynamic web server by gathering information on the device in a non-IP-based network.
By comparing, interface arrangement as shown in Figure 2 can under the assistance of function control protocol, or directly gather information by subsidiary layer on the device in the non-IP-based network.In any case, interface arrangement as shown in Figure 3 uses information that agreed territory is collected from cooperating, on each device.
Second function is that the function demand for control that will be used for IP-based network converts the function control that is used for non-IP-based network to.If preset function is selected by the HTTP in the IP based network, then this function is converted into the relevant controlling order in the non-IP-based network.If destination apparatus does not participate in cooperating agreement under the sort of situation, the mode that can only be advised by the function control protocol, with normal interface realizes handling, and interface wherein can be realized by interface arrangement as shown in Figure 1.But but when participating in the inside operating protocol, even also can dynamically discern linking functions with unscheduled device, construct a homepage and suitably translation function control.
Device in IP-based network can be by as shown in Figure 3 the homepage of web server be familiar with the existence and the function of each device in non-IP-based network, the therefore function that only in network, shows of control.
In brief, interface arrangement as shown in Figure 3 is the replenishing of shortcoming of generic interface device as shown in Figure 2.Even link not predetermined non-IP-based network device, the function of relevant apparatus also can be familiar with by using a high-level protocol, and follow-up multiple auxiliary function can be provided.
If non-IP-based network device participates in a senior cooperation agreement, then any device can freely be linked to wherein and be easy to control in IP-based network.
Fig. 4 is the flow chart according to the flow process of the IP protocol specification control signal that storehouse is as shown in Figure 2 arranged.
As mentioned above, the network equipment of IP may be embodied to independently type, maybe can realize the function such with the part of a special device.
When resetting, initialization for causing (steps A) between IP interface arrangement and non-IP-based network.In this state, the IP interface arrangement requires information on node, and if purpose respond this requirement, then on node, gather information.If the INFORMATION DISCOVERY IP interface arrangement of collecting is scheduled to, then construct the function (step B) of a homepage with announcement apparatus.In case homepage is finished, the control device of IP-based network obtains the access path to this homepage, so that obtain the destination device of the non-IP-based network of access.Therefore, can attempt necessary control in this state.
Command conversion from control appliance is become the control command relevant with destination device, and receive response there.This destination device is carried out relevant operation (step C) according to the control command that is converted then.
Fig. 5 is the flow chart according to the flow process of the IP protocol specification control signal that storehouse is as shown in Figure 3 arranged.
The state that HAVi is used as the agreement of inner working as shown in Figure 5.The flow process of its basic operation and control signal is with shown in Figure 4 the same.
Especially, between IP interface arrangement and non-IP-based network, carry out initialization (steps A).In that the operation of Fig. 5 is identical with the operation of Fig. 4 but flow process that gather information on destination device is different.According to the flow process of as shown in Figure 5 control signal, information exchanges in the scope that HAVi allows.Finally, the used function that participates in the HAVi destination device is handled to be familiar with by this.In case the result as control signal constructs dynamic home page (step B), the IP network control device requires the control of a specific function by the homepage that is configured so.At this moment, control information exchanges by HAVi between non-IP based network device.The relevant command-execution operation (step C) of destination device basis, and for the function control response control signal that requires.
Practical embodiments of the present invention as shown in Figure 6 and Figure 7.
Fig. 6 is the block diagram of protocol stack of the IP interface arrangement of explanation one embodiment that satisfies IEEE 1394 and Ethernet protocol according to the present invention.With reference to figure 6, non-IP-based network represents to use the state (ieee standard 1394 of IEEE1394; Be called " barrier shield " proposes by Apple), IEEE 1394 is interfaces of high-speed serial, and IP-based network represents to use the state of Ethernet (ieee standard 80).
In Fig. 6, IP-based network is used Ethernet, but not IP-based network is used IEEE1394.In Ethernet, two-layer three layers of PHY, MAC and the LLC of being divided into again of physical layer (PHY) in seven layers of reference model of OSI and linking layer (LINK).IP is the basis on upper strata in the local area network (LAN) of representative Ethernet.PHY and MAC implement as hardware usually, and implement as software on the upper strata of LLC.
Though Ipover 1394 goes for special situation, the IEEE1394 agreement of non-IP-based network is applicable to that the A/V apparatus of family expenses does not generally use IP.IEEE 1394 mainly comprises PHY and LINK layer.As shown in Figure 6, transaction layer (TRANSACTION) exists in the upper strata of LINK as software function module, and the bus management module that is together in series exists by PHY, LINK and TRANSACTION layer.This be in the specification requirement of IEEE 1394, advise the layer state.
In one embodiment of this invention, IEC 61883 and AV/C use as the function control protocol on the upper strata of TRANSACTION layer.When IEEE 1394 was applicable to the A/V apparatus, IEC 61883 and AV/C were the main agreements of using.Has identical structure as interface among interface as shown in Figure 6 and Fig. 2 with reference to explanation.
In addition, as one of condition in Fig. 2, can use the web access path of IP based network.Function control protocol in non-IP-based network also can be carried out the function of oneself by IEC 61883 and AV/C.
Fig. 7 is the block diagram of storehouse of variation of the IP interface arrangement of explanation one another embodiment of satisfying IEEE 1394 and Ethernet protocol according to the present invention.With reference to figure 7, this Ethernet is used in IP-based network as in interface arrangement as shown in Figure 6, and IEEE 1394 is used in the network based on non-IP.On the upper strata of Ethernet, not only can set up ICP/IP protocol, and set up the HTTP and the webserver in addition.One of cooperation agreement shown in Figure 3 HAVi is used in IEEE 1394 networks.Because HAVi uses IEEE 1394 basically, so this use is suitable.
Each functional block of HAVi shown in Figure 7 represents to use the state by the software function module of HAVi standard recommendation.IEC 61883 and AV/C module are not subordinated to HAVi, but are subordinated to the module that can not participate in the purpose of HAVi in order to participate in this device and keep.
Between the system that uses HAVi, all functions of corresponding intrument are by extractings such as DCM and FCM.These functions can be controlled by delivering HAVi information.Therefore, interface arrangement can grasp and control the function of interface arrangement as shown in Figure 7 at an easy rate according to the present invention, and the function that when the memory channel that they get again, participates in IEEE 1394 systems of unscheduled HAVi, simultaneously, the description of each functional block of HAVi is replaced by the benchmark of the open specification of HAVi usually.
Fig. 8 is the common block diagram of an embodiment of the internal structure of conversion portion as shown in Figure 6 and Figure 7 of explanation.Fig. 6 and Fig. 7 have shown the distinct interface module that is located at non-IP-based network limit.
Fig. 8 had both showed the operating structure of interface when using ICE 61883, had showed the interface structure when using HAVi again.
The operating structure of interface when using above-mentioned IEC 61883 is described below.
At first, obtain as grasping node counts and ROM collection method of information on non-IP-based network being set by direct control IEEE 1394 in the essential information on the node by the environment that reads each node.The type of relevant apparatus grasps by IEC 61883 modules acquisition of information on each node.According to the information analysis on SDD and DCM node and the extracting of node counts, and the analysis of passing through the ROM of node environment setting, the homepage that is used for control panel set up.Therefore main homepage is established and links.
The second, the command conversion on non-IP based network feature becomes to be used for AV/C life the present of IEC 61883.
When using HAVi, the structure of interface is as follows.
At first, the information of collecting each node as the method that is used for acquisition of information on the node of non-IP-based network by the HAVi module.Here, the SDD of each node that obtains to the menu of the number of node, each node with by the HAVi module and the content of DCM are analyzed.The second, the order on non-IP based network feature becomes understandable form by the HAVi module converts so that link with the HAVi module.
Simultaneously, Fig. 9 and Figure 10 have shown such control flow, and this control flow is opposite to the control of the module of IP-based network with module from non-IP based network.
Fig. 9 be explanation according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, from a non-IP-based network to flow chart as the Interface status of an IP-based network of a dynamic home page structure.Figure 10 be explanation according to another preferred embodiment of the present invention, from a non-IP-based network to flow chart as the Interface status of an IP-based network of a dynamic home page structure.The operation of the functional module of control herein by as shown in Figure 8 realizes.
Be summary below as Fig. 9 and control shown in Figure 10.In step 910, information on the ROM of collector node counter and environment setting, and the type of grabbing device.In step 915, analyze the information on SDD and the DCM.In step 920, the result of step 910 and step 915 is stored in the register.In step 930, whether decision network information obtains fully.If judge to obtain fully, then in step 940, be linked to the control panel icon of sub-homepage.This control icon is linked to corresponding order.In step 960, be linked to the node icon of main homepage.And node icon is linked to sub-homepage in step 970.In step 980, whether non-IP-based network homepage is ready to fully in check.After check, finish whole process.
According to the present invention prepare the operation of interface arrangement thereafter.

In step 1010, confirm the HTTP incident.In step 1020, confirm whether the function control diagram mark is clicked.Under sure situation, the function control diagram mark is shone upon by the generic command that is used for relevant icon in step 1030.In step 1040, the characteristic command conversion that is used for non-IP-based network becomes general order.In step 1050, carry out one with the order control corresponding requirement that is converted.
Personal computer is an example of implementing the function of foregoing description as the part of specific device.Connect the PC card that is used for network of relation, and keeping the function on the link to implement as software.
Figure 11 shows that one implements the example of said apparatus independently.This device can be simply by the link that participates in each corresponding network and PHI chip and by primary processor with utilize software implementation to keep the memory of function to implement.
Ethernet is used for an IP-based network, and IEEE 1394 is used for a non-IP-based network.For Ethernet, PHY and MAC layer are only implemented as hardware, and remaining can be used as software implementation.In order to strengthen the performance of interface arrangement, can use a high performance primary processor.In addition, one is used for internal memory duplicated data packet conversion or function continually and can be used as hardware and implement.
In brief, according to a preferred embodiment of the invention, suggestion adopts two kinds of patterns to be used for from an IP-based network device Long-distance Control one non-IP-based network device.
Two kinds of patterns change according to the function of the agreement that participates in each IP based network device.For by the Internet each device of control in non-IP-based network easily, the trend of standardization again and use is arranged as the structure of the cooperation agreement of Fig. 3 suggestion.Therefore, interface arrangement as shown in Figure 3 is feasible.
Because all IP devices of storage and to transmit stored information non-IP-based network device to the Internet be impossible in interface arrangement, so the visit of the Internet has been proposed problem under routine techniques by non-IP-based network.
Yet, between non-IP based network device and interface arrangement, the device of access the Internet should participate in TCP/IP.Under the situation of IEEE 1394 interfaces series connection, Ipover 1394 standards are set.Therefore, the PC that has IEEE 1394 interfaces can attempt and visit that IP-based network is the same visits special net.In this case, the following three kinds of detailed datas in the pattern of Fig. 3 need to revise.
The first, Ipover 1394 should use as the upper strata of non-IP based network link.
The second, IEEE 1394 packets are converted to the functional module of IP-based network compressed format.
The 3rd, when IP-based IEEE 1394 devices because shortage of ip address and when public IP address can not be provided, should provide the IP address of a special use.Therefore, agreement that should the use and management private ip address, for example DHCP and NAPT.
As mentioned above, the invention provides an effect that is used for certain remotely controlled electronically device of non-IP based network.
